Everybody should have a will. I heard a horror story from friends of my sister who had their brother die unexpectedly without a will. Without a will, EVERYTHING goes to the government. Your family would have to fight the government to get anything.
I got my will done last year, cost around $350 through the lawyer, had a living will done at same time. Although there are will kits in bookstores, you will still have to get it notarized to make it official.The lawyer I saw also pointed out a few things about my will that I never would have thought about that probably saved my family a lot of problems after I croak.
I f you don't want certain people at your funeral, discuss it with the people you do want at your funeral now. Having your funeral plans sorted now is not morbid(as many people say) it just makes good sense to not leave a bunch of arrangements to be made by people who are grieving your passing and in an emotional state.
